Hey all! I’m interested in creating an account on mastodon, and am looking to build up a list of people to follow. Let me know who your must follows are!

    I have no explicit suggestions but I will just repeat what was told to me: hashtags are your friend. Find people associated with those that interest you.

    Actually I take that back, the one suggestion I do have is Low Quality Facts. Their posts make me snicker usually.

    Definitely Taylor Lorenz. She’s almost always on trending, but she’s a journalist always posting about twitter and musk’s controversies, very interesting content.

    We Distribute is kind of like a publication about the fediverse. Great content.

    Linus Torvalds. This one’s pretty obvious.

    But I’m still looking too! If you’re into tech, you will almost definitely find something for you on mastodon, especially free software. Good luck!

    Couple random cool stuffs:

    • @FilmNoirPosters@zirk.us (Movie posters from noir films of the 1930s-1950s-ish.)
    • @internetarchive@mastodon.archive.org (Internet Archive’s official account. [I’m pretty sure.])
    • @GayOldTime@masto.ai (Random ads/media that celebrate queer-ness either obviously, subtly or unintentionally)
    • @openculture@toot.community (Random cool open source art resources and content)
    • @robotwig@socel.net (Very cool action figure/miniature photography)
    • @LibrarianRA@worldkey.io (Retro ads/media)

    This fella called DJDarren. He’s brilliant. https://mendeddrum.org/@DJDarren

    I heartily recommend Fox News*, but otherwise I’d suggest looking up hashtags of things you’re into and following people who like what you like. And follow other people on your own server too.

    It’s kinda tricky, because most of the people I follow might not be interesting to others, but they’re mostly good for chatting with.
